DeviceNet Adapter features
DeviceNet Adapter settings can be made either via on-board switches, or by importing the provided .EDS file into engineering tool of the
controlling PLC.
PROFINET I/O Device/Slave interface
Anybus X-gateway – DeviceNet Adapter
- PROFINET-IO Device
The Anybus X-gateway allows you to seamlessly inter-connect PLC control systems and their
connected devices between DeviceNet and PROFINET networks.
FAST COPYING OF I/O DATA
The X-gateways primary function is with the fast transfer of cyclic I/O data between the two
networks. This offloads your PLC from working with additional calculations. The gateway acts as
an Adapter on the DeviceNet network and a Device on the PROFINET network. The data
transmission between the two networks is completely transparent with a maximum data capacity
of 512 bytes in each direction.
EASY CONFIGURATION - NO PROGRAMMING REQUIRED!
The connection between the two networks is quickly set up in the Anybus Configuration Manager
software, included with the X-gateway. No programming skills are needed to set up the X-gateway.
As factory default the X-gateways have a pre-defined I/O size of 20 bytes I/O.
Fast copying of cyclic I/O data between DeviceNet and PROFINET networks (10-15 ms)
